Harris has been assassinated 0 times, but Trump has been assassinated 4 times! Trump is currently the US president who has been assassinated the most times! Let's sort out the history of assassinations Trump has encountered: The first assassination attempt: The earliest assassination attempt against Trump was on June 16, 2016, when Trump was still a presidential candidate. A British citizen, Michael Steven Sanford, tried to grab a policeman's gun at a Trump rally in Las Vegas, Nevada and assassinated him. British citizen Sanford was arrested. After being arrested, Sanford was sentenced to twelve months and one day in prison, but was released and deported to the UK after eleven months. The second assassination attempt was on September 6, 2017, when Trump was officially elected as the President of the United States. Gregory Lee Rheingart, a 42-year-old man from North Dakota, attempted to assassinate Trump when he visited Mandan. Rheingart stole a forklift from the refinery and planned to rush to the presidential car in the presidential motorcade. But he failed at the first step of his plan. After the forklift got stuck in the refinery, Reingang could only flee on foot and was eventually arrested by the police.
During interrogation in the detention center, he admitted that he intended to murder the president, which surprised the police, who at the time suspected that he was just a simple car thief. For intending to assassinate the president, Reingang was sentenced to 20 years in prison, far exceeding the penalty for attempted car theft.
Third assassination attempt
In November 2017, a man affiliated with the extremist organization "Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL)" was arrested by the Philippine National Police on suspicion of assassinating Trump during the ASEAN diplomatic summit.
A year after the incident, an official documentary describing the incident showed that the US Federal Secret Service discovered that a man posted a notice of the attack on social media before Trump's plane landed, so he was able to quickly arrest the terrorist.
The fourth assassination attempt
On July 13, 2024, at about 18:15, when Trump was giving a speech at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania, the 20-year-old gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks "fired several shots" at Trump from the rooftop more than 100 meters away, and the bullet hit Trump's right ear.One person died and two people were seriously injured.
